Your not wearing a mask doesn't threaten my life

If the "Your" is carrying the virus it threatens the "my" life. It certainly does if the "my" isn't wearing a mask.

What is it with you lamebrains?

 

[sygn]

I took a taxi the other day, because my car was out.

The driver told me that they're required to wear masks, so he'd been going around all pharmacies, but the ones he found were quite expensive, so he can't afford that many. So he's re-using them.

I, for one don't want to use a taxi where the driver isn't using a surgical mask, even if a taxi is a walking germ closet.

But what about them? Those surgical masks are meant to prevent the driver from spreading germs to the public, they don't protect him from inhaling them.

It seems to me like we are sacrificing essential workers (bus and taxi drivers, warehouse and checkout operators, nurses).
Many of them already died.

Snapping to the reality....................finally.

So don't leave the house. Your safety and your fears are your problem.

For how long have I been saying that Democrats and Progressives
are bleating about saving the lives of others, even if it is just Juan!
but what they are really saying in muted undertones is that they
want to save their own life (from Trump's tiny death squads)...

[They don't even want to take responsibility for saving their own damned lives!]

 

[WillJ8787]

Give them liberty or give them death.

Might not be an either or in this instance. At least their liberty to go to Lowes, get their hair cut etc...

So true....the truiest statement about these yum yums i've see so far. I don't go to Lowe's for now because it has become a free for all inside and I'd rather not go to jail for giving an idiot an attitude adjustment.

 

[SpeareChucker]

Talk them into submission?


from behind a mask???

 

[JohnnySavage]

So don't leave the house. Your safety and your fears are your problem.

That's the answer, right there. Those that are worried should stay home. Since when do we quarantine the healthy people?

...and in most cases, by executive fiat, not through the legislative process.

 

[WillJ8787]

I wouldn't waste my time(words) with the living dead, but I forget sometimes this mantra and start to actually care, then I get angry and want to administer the punishment, then I realize jail is not where I want to be.

Testing masks: Here ya go.
How well would some of these protect you? or me?

How does the performance of some of these masks, compare to home made masks?

False sense of security? If you're using some of these fine pirate wannabe N95's, that is not a question. It's a fact.
How about home made masks. Are they better?

It's a 100% legit question.

"Recent tests by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health found that about 60 percent of 67 different types of imported masks tested allowed in more tiny particles in at least one sample than U.S. standards normally permit."

"One mask that Niosh tested, sold in packaging bearing unauthorized Food and Drug Administration logos, filtered out as little as 35 percent of particles. Another, marked KN95, a Chinese standard similar to N95, had one sample test below 15 percent, far short of the 95 percent it advertised, Niosh said. KN95 and N95 both refer to standards that call for masks to block 95 percent of very small particles."

[SpeareChucker]

IF they save ONE life

THEN it should be mandatory!

THERE ARE TIMES when your freedom imposes on mine!
(And I don't wanna stay home anymore, so if you won't...)

 

[SpeareChucker]

... even if they just DELAY one death!

The mask PREVENTS YOU from spreading it around. It doesn't prevent you from catching anything.

If YOU aren't sick, the mask does NOTHING. In that case wearing a mask is superfluous because a) it doesn't prevent you from catching anything; and, b) YOU AREN"T CONTAGIOUS so there isn't anything for the mask to keep from being spread around.

But hay, you go ahead and continue thinking that you wearing a mask is "prevention" rather than paranoia.

Hey, you looked it up for yourself. You should be proud.

Now you know where to go to learn about the beta ratio of the masks with .125 particulates.

Still don't know that genius.
The tests they did, are the standard NIOSH respirator test, which is for .3 um particles, not .125 um particles.

Be stupid..... feel safe.
Just go where your pushed.

How fucking cute it that?

High School????

I thought he never graduated from the third grade.
Fact is, the third grade was the hardest three years of his life.

Well, FGB, it appears from some responses on this thread and from the news about protesters affecting more liberal virus control policies in certain states that we will soon face a much bigger wave of infections and death in America.

Batten down the hatches and keep wiping down your steering wheel.

Once again, I'm glad we were finally able to agree on something.

 

[SpeareChucker]

*chuckle*

Such certainty

born of politics repeated...

So tell us.....how many people will go out in public, wearing some half-assed inefficient mask, thinking they are invincible, and catch the virus?

Think that’s not possible?

Hey, since you're so passionate about the subject, why don't lift that fat lazy ass and get something done yourself? If teenager can build fusion reactor in the bedroom, why couldn't you device a test of a couple masks yourself? In current climate could be instant YouTube hit. Seriously. Or maybe local university has downtime in their labs, lockdown and so. Sure you can't just walk in, but with the obsession you're displaying you may get someone interested. Well, if only your attitude wasn't that offputting.

 

[IsItBad]

perpetration

in the end .....even the slower ones will learn that the country has been duped, screwed, fucked over royally.....anything and everything to ruin a president and an economy

meanwhile in the real news.....hospitals are empty, field hospitals set up at the cost of millions all over creation never treated a soul......and are already taken down

hospitals are being paid 17500 vs the normal 750 to "record" covid deaths......which MIGHT be overinflating the numbers

and the next wave is the terrible food shortage.....probably going to run slap out of bacon

is anyone awake?

of course paloosi is home scheming on how to fuck the country out of billions or trillions more for her special interests.......

and of course the never ending pressure for mail in voting so they can really fuck the system

so.....go to lowes....go to home depot....whatever.....wear a mask.....dont wear a mask.....do what you what you want to......but dont castigate people who have not bought into the BS

think about this.....IF close contact equals impending spread of the virus....why is that "essential workers" who have gone to work every day.....do not have a disproportionately high rate of infection?

those damn inconvenient logical facts

Why don’t you do like I have, and write your congressmen about it?

You don’t care if the mask you are wearing works , and is actually going to protect you?
